Are CUT Manufacturers pricing themselves out of the market?

I paid $18 K back in 2008 for my SCUT BX 25. Now it’s $35K. I would never buy it today at that price.

Paid 14,500 for the BX23… no regrets…

These days my focus is on property taxes, insurance, utilities, disposal and maintenance costs.

Why not?

Because folks shouldn't take out loans for toys and banks shouldn't loan money for toys. And before we go any farther with this, I want it to be very clear that I'm not suggesting that there should be a government prohibition on such things.

I was at a local grocery store, local large brown eggs were/are $8.49 a dozen. Commercially grown Egglands Best large white eggs are $3.29 a doz.
I imagine the farm is so big, they can keep bird flu out with preventative measures.

Bird ful brought to you by the lairs in the government, scare tactic for the non thinkers.

People should be permitted to spend their money as they wish, even for toys. And banks only care if the lender has income and isn’t a bad risk for repayment. Entire industries would disappear if people couldn’t finance their products.

I paid $8 for 24 brown cage free organic eggs from Costco.
($4/dozen)
I thought that was fair

So what is killing the chickens? If you think they are not dying, there's a few farms around here that would beg to differ.

The conspiracy is bigger than we thought!

Where did I say the chickens were not dying or that there is no bird flu?

Considering trucks and autos have gone up. I purchased a brand new 2019 ram rebel for 49k. I believe MSRP was 58k. For a new Rebel. Its 68k so im guessing a guy if he tried could get it for 58. But thats just inflation

Another example would be my wife's 2017 Mazda CX-5 we bought new. WE paid 29k for it and recently traded it in for the same car just a 2025. Both were best trims for available years. and we gave 38k for it. So inflation has played a significant role in pricing.

With the popularity of these tractors prices are inflated as well. I dont think pricing is going to come down much at all. People are just taking on debt and servicing it out for 7 years for that cheap monthly payment. Which i think is crazy. Its probably not a big deal on a tractor since the value holds strong but a vehicle. I can't imagine taking on a 60k loan for 7 or 8 years. Probably every bit of 800 a month.
